Can someone look over my build? (First time, $1000-1300 gaming/school)

Wiling to spend as much as 1500 if i must, still have to buy keyboard and mouse but those aren't included here, have a monitor already. What could I add/remove/change about this to help improve performance? The mobo is 50 bucks because of a microcenter bundle with the cpu. Computer will be for games school and casual use.

that mobo is going to be your biggest downfall later on, the psu could be better and 750 watt is overkill. i would keep the 760, it is a better card than the 7950. I would of gotten an asrock extreme4 mobo and maybe a seasonic or xfx psu personally

yes the extreme 4 is a good mobo with sli capability and the one you have does not have sli ready and will hold back your system, for the psu i would go with seasonic if its in your price range since they are the best psu supplier or you could get the XFX 650X which is a semi modular psu with the parts being made by seasonic

Thanks for the help, I'll go for the two parts I replied with instead of what I already had. Cheers
